The recce was carried out in knee deep
snow and had therefore to be cut short. The walk therefore also
became a recce with snow still lying in Rawthey Gill. Add to this
the low dense mist and the walk became rather tricky to navigate.
With a further hindrance of the GPS not working it was decided to
abandon the walk and make our way back by the lower slopes of Baugh
fell. By early afternoon the mist suddenly cleared leaving a clear
view of the all the tops around us. Too late though for the walk.
